Charlie Sidner opened the Retreat on Friday night.

Charlie was the Layman of the Year in 2005.

Charlie couldn't attend the retreat in 2006.

So he delivered his devotion at this Retreat.

After dinner we moved to the assembly room - the coffee was ready.

The men (and a few ladies) always warm up singing.

Bob Grant makes sure we don't slack off.

While Greg Holmes provides the accompanyment.

Archie Jenkins, President opened Session 1 and introduced our speaker.

Dr. Doug Skinner from Northway Christian Church in Dallas Texas.

Doug's first session was on 2 Peter 1:3-11.

After the session we hold our traditional ice cream social.

Complete with all kinds of toppings.

And good fellowship.

Around a roaring fire as it was cold outside this year.
